Chapter 214 Discussion

On Tuesday morning, Yang Jingxing invited Yu Xinting to go to Li Yingzhen's office to participate in a work discussion. When he went upstairs, he met another professor from the piano department, and they both greeted him politely.

The professor smiled kindly: "Here we are...it's only 09:30."

Yu Xinting said, "Professor Li told us to come earlier."

Yang Jingxing said, "Get used to the environment first."

The professor smiled: "The conference room. You guys go, we'll talk about it later... Yang Jingxing, is that folk music ensemble ready?"

Yang Jingxing said, "It's almost there, thank you."

The professor nodded with satisfaction: "That's good. My evaluation of you is that you are inherited and free and easy, and you are popular and unique... Go, go, I will come later."

Li Yingzhen was doing nothing, when she saw Yang Jingxing and the others coming, she began to give various instructions.In fact, the so-called work discussion is quite common in the Pu Yin Composition Department. It is a work defense, but it is rare to be led by a performance major, and Yang Jingxing is still a freshman, so Li Yingzhen may be afraid of messing up. She warned Yu Xinting: "Not only It is a test for Yang Jingxing and a test for you, this is an opportunity to prove yourself."

Yu Xinting nodded: "I'm seriously preparing."

In order to show respect, Yang Jingxing and Yu Xinting went to the conference room to wait first, and sat on the side of the conference table near the piano. Yu Xinting drew a straight line on the table with her fingertips.

Yang Jingxing suggested: "Drink a glass of water?"

Yu Xinting shook her head and revealed in a low voice: "Professor Feng is stricter than Professor Li!" Besides Li Yingzhen, Professor Feng is another good teacher in the piano department who is qualified to open a piano teaching studio. He is a few years older than Li Yingzhen. The spiritual old man that students go around.

Yang Jingxing said: "They are only strict with good students."

Yu Xinting put her palms on the table and stretched her ten fingers, and said, "But there are so many people...it's embarrassing."

Yang Jingxing comforted: "No, whoever dares to say you will let him play."

Yu Xinting hehe: "Surely not."

Yang Jingxing said, "Make a bet."

Yu Xinting said: "I'm not too nervous, it's okay."

A group of teachers came together, He Hongchui, Gong Xiaoling, Li Yingzhen, plus professors from the piano department, and a few teachers who were not professors but were already qualified. There were twelve people in total, each with a sheet music.Yang Jingxing and Yu Xinting stood up to welcome them, and were told to sit down after the elders were all seated.

The chair of the meeting was the head of the piano department. He first cared: "You also pour a glass of water yourself."

Yang Jingxing went, and first offered a cup to some teachers who didn't have cups, to get some thanks.Yu Xinting also thanked her after taking her turn, and Yang Jingxing smiled.

The head of the department led everyone to have a sip of tea and began to speak energetically: "Student Yang Jingxing was admitted to the Composition Department led by Director He with No. He is a leader in the department. In the school for more than half a year, he has been studying hard with the teachers, and in a short period of time, he has achieved remarkable results, even achievements, which deserves congratulations and praise!"

The director applauded happily, and everyone agreed, Yang Jingxing bowed his head.

The director looked at everyone again and said: "Since ancient times, heroes come from youth, and heroes are born from tempering. There are no geniuses in the world. Everyone says that Yang Jingxing is the most gifted student since the establishment of Puyin School, but I want to say that he is the most gifted student since the establishment of the school. The hardest-working student. Not only Professor He and Professor Li, but also our other teachers. As long as we have this fighting spirit, success will only happen sooner or later..."

Then, the director mentioned the names of more than a dozen people. These people all graduated from Puyin. They are all senior masters in composition, vocal music or instrumental music. These people are all accomplished and well-known in their own industries. .

The director said: "...Everyone has put in a lot of effort beyond others to achieve their current achievements, and Yang Jingxing's academic efforts are many times more than his classmates, so I want to praise him. Last year The cooperation with the New York Philharmonic did not attract enough attention from the school at the time, but he was praised by Yeromil and others, which is a good affirmation of Professor Li's hard work..."

Li Yingzhen didn't seem to hear, but Yu Xinting smiled at Yang Jingxing.

The director continued: "...It is precisely because of his world-class performance skills that he can write high-level or even world-class piano works. As the head of the piano department, I am very glad that Yang Jingxing has not forgotten his original intention. Today I will discuss According to Professor Hu, this "Piano Sonata in C-sharp Minor" is one of the most valuable works of Puyin students in the past 20 years..."

Professor Hu on the other side nodded, indicating that he had said such a thing.

The director looked at He Hongchui and the others, and said, "Of course, Yang Jingxing is an excellent composition student. Professor He and Professor Gong are very good at teaching. Under their supervision and guidance, Yang Jingxing has completed many different types of compositions since he entered school "Sun in the Rain" was conducted by Zhang Jiahuo, "Wind and Wind Together" has been performed many times inside and outside the school, and the large-scale work that will be on the stage of the music festival will definitely achieve more Good results. Of course, there are also some pop songs that are very popular with the masses."

Gong Xiaoling said to Yang Jingxing, "It's a good thing not to be proud, but don't keep your head down."

The other teachers agreed, so Yang Jingxing raised his face a little, his acting skills were not good, and he wasn't popular at all.

After sorting out Yang Jingxing's great achievements, the head of the piano department thought of another person: "Yu Xinting, I have a deep memory of your wounded exam. What does it mean that you can pass the exam? It means you have a level!"

Yu Xinting also followed Yang Jingxing's example of bowing her head and not speaking.

Professor Hu said: "Well, I remember that the "Hungarian Rhapsody No. [-]" played at that time was adapted by Yang Jingxing."

Yu Xinting raised her face and nodded.

Professor Hu said: "The requirements for this work are much higher."

Professor Feng, who was sitting next to the head of the department, stared at Yang Jingxing with his straight body for a while, then suddenly said, "Yang Jingxing, let me ask you, why don't you play it yourself? It's not just your own works. You first learned Piano, why don't you want to go on stage?" He had never communicated with Yang Jingxing before.

Yang Jingxing looked sincerely, hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't like the stage."

"Why do you want to learn if you don't like it?" Professor Feng was a little aggressive.

Yang Jingxing said: "I like piano and music."

Everyone looked at Yang Jingxing, and Li Yingzhen said: "Without stage training, you will stagnate." Fortunately, the tone was not too harsh.

Gong Xiaoling still hehe: "This is his stage, school."

He Hongchui looked at Yang Jingxing and taught him a lesson: "No matter what stage you put on, you must take every performance seriously and respect every audience."

Yang Jingxing nodded.

The head of the department smiled with satisfaction and suggested: "Should I listen to it first?"

Li Yingzhen said: "Yu Xinting, you play."

Yu Xinting left her seat and sat down in front of the piano before she straightened her body. She no longer needed to read the score, and started after a little preparation.

For the past few days, Yu Xinting has practiced this piece for at least six hours a day, and now she is at least much better than a week ago.She could recite the notes well, and she worked hard to implement Yang Jingxing's request, and even had a few wonderful ones.Without an in-depth study of the score, it is difficult for the average professional to hear what is wrong.

Twenty thousand colorful notes drifted or shot out from under the keys one after another. After 10 minutes of playing, Yu Xinting's forehead was sweating, and she put her hands on her knees as if she didn't dare to turn her head.

Yang Jingxing was shameless and took the lead in applauding. The teachers generously gave him some face.Yu Xinting turned her head, stood up and bowed, and was called back to her seat by the teachers.

It was the head of the department who took the lead in speaking: "I read the score no less than five times, and my first impression was the complexity of the harmony, especially the second and third movements. I think we can start from two aspects. One, the additional The overlay of chords and chords of external tones is quite bold. Second, Yang Jingxing's reference to the harmony of sustained tones is quite unique and novel, and it is worth noting."

Professor Hu nodded: "I agree, but just listening to Yu Xinting play it gave me an idea. I also heard Yang Jingxing play it himself. In terms of handling these complex chords, they are actually two different styles. Yu Xinting is more traditional and classical. , emphasizing rich colors and expressing complex emotions. However, Yang Jingxing himself made these harmonies very unified, with a feeling of simplifying the complexity. At your level, why do you have to deal with it like this?"

Everyone nodded in agreement and waited for Yang Jingxing's answer.

Yang Jingxing said: "Yu Xinting spent much more time in playing than I did. In fact, I only played it a few times, and Professor Li scolded me."

Old man Feng asked: "You mean you can't play it well?"

Yang Jingxing was more conservative: "I like her playing."

Yu Xinting bowed her head again.He Hongchui didn't care what Yang Jingxing liked, and said, "Let's look at the first theme first, Yu Xinting, the theme didn't change much when you played it just now, including the intensity. I can see that you express your emotions through harmony and rhythm. Do you think this is the best change?"

Yu Xinting straightened her neck and said seriously: "I played it many times and compared it carefully...Professor Li and Yang Jingxing also said that this is okay and better."

He Hongchui said: "Yang Jingxing, play it like you did with me last time."

Yang Jingxing went there and practiced the true knowledge. After discussion, everyone felt that Yu Xinting's interpretation method seemed to be more suitable for her image style, which was more delicate and less direct.None of the people here are ignorant, and just this little bit is enough for everyone to express their opinions and show off for a long time.

But the most profound seems to be Gong Xiaoling, she is a little 'fascinated': "This is a kind of meditation, in which I foresee beauty and suffering, and my heartstrings are constantly fluctuating..."

Except for Yang Jingxing, everyone had to nod their heads in appreciation.

For seminars, the teachers will compare different performances, with Yu Xinting playing for a while and Yang Jingxing playing for a while.Fortunately, no one said that Yu Xinting was not good, even though she still struggled in some passages, the teachers seemed to be afraid that Yang Jingxing would ask them to try, so they just reminded Yu Xinting a little and expressed encouragement.

Originally, I should just briefly talk about the characteristics of the whole work, and everyone sang high-pitched songs to each other, but because of He Hongchui's rigor and Feng's relentless pursuit, it gradually evolved into reading and reading word by word, until At eleven o'clock, the first movement was not finished.

Bearing in mind the teacher's instructions, Yang Jingxing answered every question earnestly, but basically what he said meant he didn't say anything. Either each had its own characteristics, or he was immature in thinking, or the teachers praised him too much.

The first movement was wasted for so long, and the second movement was even more difficult. From the very beginning, Professor Hu and Gong Xiaoling disagreed.Professor Hu thinks that those dense eighth notes should play a pulsating effect, but Gong Xiaoling thinks that playing like that will make the melody less 'sexy'.

It was rare for Li Yingzhen to look at Yang Jingxing's face, and directly decided to have both a sense of pulsation and melody, while Yu Xinting was still far behind in expressing this passage smoothly and naturally.

He Hongchui also said: "Yang Jingxing played this part pretty well."

Yang Jingxing had to play a section, exactly as Li Yingzhen said.

Old man Feng also seemed to like this section very much, saying: "In the first movement, I think Yang Jingxing is a student of the composition department. When we get to this section, we can see his piano talent, skill and elegance."

A professor echoed: "Especially this kind of legato-staccato echo is very difficult to play."

A teacher also expressed his opinion: "After echoing, it can be seen as a smiling expression, and then there is a little silence..."

Why does it feel like it's getting more and more mysterious, and many opinions are different from what Yu Xinting analyzed with Li Yingzhen's help, this girl tried her best to listen carefully.

One person babbled a few words, and it was already twelve o'clock before the second movement was finished.At the suggestion of the director, everyone discussed and agreed to come back after lunch.

The two students went to the cafeteria, and after walking out of the sight of the teachers, Yu Xinting said to Yang Jingxing, "Don't ask me to say anything."

Yang Jingxing said, "I don't know what to say."

Yu Xinting said: "It shows that they value you very much... I also think this song is very, very good."

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Thank you."

Yu Xinting said: "Actually, many great works were created under very... bad circumstances."

Yang Jingxing said: "Anyway, I don't expect greatness."

Yu Xinting said: "Greatness takes time...it's really good!"

Yang Jingxing blamed: "Are we friends?"

Yu Xinting giggled: "Then I won't talk anymore... I have to practice hard."

After walking for a while shaking hands, Yu Xinting asked: "Professor Li and Professor Gong both said that the third movement is very sad, is it true?"

Yang Jingxing annoyed: "You ask too?"

Yu Xinting anxiously: "I'm not asking about the work..."

Yang Jingxing said: "Take it as a moan without illness."

Yu Xinting said: "That's good. Actually, I hope you haven't written this song..."

Yang Jingxing pointed to Yu Xinting's face: "You have finally told the truth."

Yu Xinting didn't smile or be afraid, she raised her round eyes and said, "I hope you don't write anymore, and write happily."

Yang Jingxing nodded: "Actually, there is a happy side to being unhappy."

Yu Xinting asked, "Why?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Everything has two sides."

Yu Xinting nodded: "What do you want to eat?"
